“Seer and seen, knower and known, are contents of the mind. Practice lies in transferring the attention from the seen to the seer. Hold on to the seer—in due course, one will experience that the seer, as a person, disappears. What remains? … It is uninterrupted awareness.”
-Sri Ratan Lal
Started boxing at about 8 months… Nearly leveling Bobo The Clown with a wicked straight right.
“Hold on to the seer…” Sit where you will not be disturbed; your eyes are open but not focused on anything. Shift attention to be aware of everything in your visual field, including your body, and maintain that wide open seeing. Now, as seeing itself, note your state of mind.
It’s peaceful to just be.
